New York City restaurant inspectors could be wearing a camera later this year when they walk in to grade a restaurant. If the legislation passes, 10 percent of all inspections would be conducted with a camera for one year, at which point the program would cease and be evaluated for potential expansion. The legislation was introduced by Republican minority leader Vincent Ignizio after hearing complaints from restaurant owners that they felt food inspectors were acting inappropriately, reports SILive.com. The legislation would have inspectors uploading their video recordings to a secure network that would allow only the Health Department and restaurant owner to view them.
